@ilh Nice. Good to know. Any idea if the demo progress carries over?

Going to wait for a review, but I'll probably end up picking this up. Hopefully, sometime this weekend.

I played twice. Got 5th my first time, 1st the second. Haven't played since because I'm tired of playing World 1 over and over. They should really make stage progression normal and not have you repeating levels.

I've always enjoyed this game more than Smash. Smash has a serious camping problem, but camping will do you no good in this game.

@Paraka "Wait, Minecraft has music?"

Literally my exact thoughts.

Minecraft is nice and all but Terraria is the real MVP.

Imagine releasing a 3d game in 2020 without the option to invert (or not) the controls.

@Ashunera84 Can you invert the Y axis from the Switch menu? That's going to be my only issue with Sunshine if this isn't possible.

@Zebetite Maybe you can tell me about this mythical company that does things simply out the kindness of its heart will no monetary reward?

I think I'm going to get a Gods and Monsters Energy Drink. Anyone want one?

@Zebetite "I will forever be disgusted by how game companies have no interest in archiving video game history unless they can make a buck off of it. This goes for other industries as well"

So then you are disgusted by all companies in all industries.

I stopped using joy cons a long time ago. 8bitdos and a switch pro work out pretty well.

Maybe the old models will finally get a price drop when the pro launches.

@LavaTwilight "Secured my physical copy. If I were to go digital with this and something happened to the Switch, I couldn't reclaim it. At least with physical I'd have a better chance of keeping hold of it"

They've already confirmed that you can re-download it after the sale ends if you purchased it digitally.

Hopefully, this awful release convinces them to add some local multiplayer. And hopefully include the actual village building elements with the multiplayer. I won't be buying until the multiplayer and single player experiences are identical.

@SirKif The old Star fox 2 approach, that would be something.

@Dezzy "I'm going with my theory that the Switch Pro will launch in 2021 and being able to play Wii games (via eshop purchase) will be one of its main selling points."

And the Nintendo Switch Pro will also make perfectly delicious Eggos! Sounds like a win win.

@Jayvir "Inspired" by X, and "being the next" X are two very different things.

@Bass_X0 Weird. I definitely remember at least "Super Mario Bros" being in 8 bit. I did mostly play Super Mario Bros 3 on there though, which I know had updated graphics. I guess my memory is just wrong.

@dil_power "No Mario Galaxy 2? Hard pass for me."

Already have it pre ordered, but seriously, leaving out Galaxy 2 is worse than all of the Sonic Collections that leave out the best one: Sonic 3 and Knuckles.

@Yanina Never played it.

@Tyranexx If I recall correctly, wasn't the NES mario games in 8 bit on the original Super Mario All Stars?

@Liam_Doolan "You can play these games offline for up to 7 days as long as you have an active NSO sub."

I've been burned by this too many times. I have an active NSO subscription but rarely play the SNES games on there. But when I do think about playing them, I'm usually away from home and WiFi. And then I can't play them....

@BenAV "If only there was another 3D Mario game they could have added to the collection..."

Ooooh ooooh. Mario's Time Machine!

@ImagineerNik

"Pre-ordered a physical copy to keep sealed and sit on my Nintendo shelf. Will get a digital copy in a month or so."

That's not a bad idea, actually, maybe I'll do the same.... Maybe.... Probably not though.

@Franklin I thought Bee Mario was only in Galaxy 2? Am I mistaken? I'm pretty sure I saw Bee Mario in that trailer.

There are other tactical games besides Fire Emblem. I enjoy many different tactical games to include :
Fire Emblem
Banner Saga
Divinity
Wargroove
Xcom

If this one is any good, I will certainly give it a try.

Never played a metroid game, and still managed a 4/12. Lucked out mostly though, obviously.

If Koopa is King, then Bowser Jr must be a prince, right?

@Tasuki How many of those sales were scalpers? All of them. Except for the lite, since they aren't as interested in the lite.

Every now and then, you've got to let the new folks takeover. There will be a Street Fighter 6. Hopefully, it takes the series in a positive direction. I prefer 4 over 5.

Looks good to me. Maybe I'll give this one a go after I'm finished with Crosscode. I will be keeping an eye for reviews first.

7/12, honestly thought I was going to do a lot worse after I got the first 2 questions wrong.

@nintendope64 As far as the amount of quality titles, the Switch isn't too far behind the PS4 this year. Yes it sucks compared to previous years, but it sucks across the board.

@Realness My backlog is tremendous. Working through Crosscode now. Thinking about revisiting Breath of the wild after since I only ever beat one divine beast. Trying to decide whether or not I should start over or fumble around trying to remember what I was doing and how to play. (Haven't touched breath of the wild, since mid 2017).

@Averagewriter In Tropical freeze, if you have a partner, you can roll indefinitely just by holding the roll button (or maybe mashing, can't remember exactly).

@Yodalovesu Children who just turned 8. Every year, millions of children turn 8, and immediately buy Minecraft.

@brunojenso I feel this way about Terraria. Once that splitscreen update comes through, I'll be buying it (for the 3rd time) on the Switch.

@nab1 I thought it looked like a gamevice too, and I will definitely be trying this at some point. Does Xcloud support streaming over LAN yet? (Using the Xbox already in your home, like PS4 remote play)?

@Averagewriter What was wrong with rolling in the original? The only thing I didn't like were the motion controls. Those are gone now.

@Brydontk I 100%'d Yoshi's Island when I was a child. I've tried to touch it since then and it just can't keep my interest. I tried it on the GBA, on the Wii VC, the SNES Mini, on a boat, with a Switch, and while wearing a coat. And I still cannot get into this game again.

@Kienda I actually use kickstarter a lot (maybe 5 times in the past 5 years). Just never for games. 😉

Bought trials of mana on day one. Didn't get to it until after I finished final fantasy 7 remake. It's definitely a dip in quality compared to ff7 but still a great game that feels so much better the further you get. It is light on story, but the combat feels so good. Don't be discouraged by the easy difficulty in the beginning, the difficulty hits a huge spike around the 3rd or 4th boss, and from there, it's a reasonable challenge for the remaining of the game.

I don't actually think 2020 is the worst year for Nintendo, but I voted for 2020 anyway for the lulz.

@mariomaster96 2017 was terrible if you couldn't find a Switch. 😉

@tapdancingtommy the wheel accessory works perfectly? Now I might have to put this on my soon to get list. How good is the range on the local wireless? Will it work with one switch upstairs and the other downstairs?

If not, is it possible to do LAN without internet (similar to Mario kart 8)?

Lots of Rpgs have missable events / quests to prevent 100%. But this isn't a missable. It's a bug. And it'll definitely get patched.

@Olmectron I, too, was joking, sort of, ... ish

@Olmectron Ryu is the best thing to happen to smash bros. - Old school SF2 player / Ryu main in Smash

@TheFullAndy Not exactly. Most gamers prefer physical software over streaming. Being able to stream your games to another platform isn't remotely the same as having it physically downloaded to the hardware.

And you're right, neither of them need Gamepass. But having gamepass potentially cannibalizes their own subscription offerings (NSO and PSNow).
